I was in a couple at Joseph's restaurant. Here I have eaten the best "fois gras " so far, and on the second side I have taken two kinds of fish, "sea bass" and "dover sole" which were also delicious and carefully placed on the plate. For dessert we took an "earth" which also impressed us. The location is intimate, the ambient music at a perfect level and the services at the highest level. Good job Joseph team. We will definitely come back!

Had an amazing evening in the restaurant, and all I have to give is praises.
The service was amazing, I felt that i'm being taking care of the whole time, but without pushing it too much. Whenever I wanted something I just raised my eyes and someone was there. When I didn't want to get bothered - nobody bugged me with unnecessary questions.
But the star of the night was the food - elegant, full of taste, smells amazing, great presentation, decent portions, reasonably priced. I'll come back to the restaurant during the week just so I could get to taste other dishes in the menu (it was really hard to make decisions). Only comment I have is that I wish there was an option for a full tasting menu, I would definitely take that if that was an option.
I highly recommend the place, and I think that you can't really visit the city without having a nice meal here. Looking forward for my next visit.

Too many restaurants nowadays are a bit weird. This wasn’t. It was just superb. Fancy restaurants often have small portions. This restaurant was fancy but the portions weren’t small. Wine list great. Service brilliant. Cool jazz played at right volume. Overall, loved it.

If you have any plans visiting this restaurant you should be aware that the tip for the waiter is already on your bill written as "bakahis" , so you will pay twice tip for them as you will find it hard to understand all the dishes in the bill and it is written in the middle of the bill not at the end, so you assume that service is not included. This is a sham that a restaurant like this is doing things like that to get more money, our luck is that we speak Romanian and we could read the bill, we asked the waiter why is it in the middle and he said that's how we do it and if we didn't knew what it is we will probably have paid twice.
Shame

The food was outstanding, really awesome. The plates were all international.
Unfortunately the bad part is the personal. There were few tables outside and 4 waiters (2 for each table, more or less) the drinks took too long to arrive and when they came for my friends, I still needed to wait even more for my drink. My drink came when the others were almost finishing theirs. When I asked the waiter about mine he even laugh on me.
This is not the behavior that the personal of an international restaurant should have.

I like the Romanian's local food but after trying few good local restaurants I decided to try this restaurant for business dinner. It was very good: food, wine , servise. We tried almost all menu (we were 5 persons and we shared) it was really great. Highly recommended.

Just had dinner at Caju with the family, the food was delicious but man oh man they need to sort the service out. As soon as we sat down the waiter took our order with a very ( I don’t want to be here face) considering that the place wasn’t even busy at the time and way to many staff just standing around doing nothing. At no time, the waiter checked on us or just look over and smile. During the main course half of us were still eating but they decided to clear the plates that were finished 😠 that really ennoyed me, you don’t need to work in the service industry to know that YOU DONT EVER DO THAT. The basic rule of service, please….. but the best one was, when asked to pay the bill, I was asked “ don’t you want to add 10% service charge?” 🥱seriously …please @Caju by Joseph Hadad sort out your staff, service in general, to compliment your delicious food!!!! Just to make a point, I give tips and generous ones if I get a good service.

Fine! ❤️
Fine dining, fine service, fine location, fine everything! For sure we will be back! Nice ambiance, maybe you can work a bit on the dimming of the lights.
Congrats to all the waiters, attendive and present all the time. I never felt the need to ask for something, because they were next to us.
Congrats, Hadad! We will wait for you in our restaurant to make a note too. It will count!
Best regards!

We booked places in the restaurant for three people, we waited for the main courses for over an hour and a half until, when we asked to cancel because we were no longer hungry, the chef came out to us like crazy and screamed at us that I'm bad and disgusting people, we were completely dumbfounded, we couldn't believe that a person could behave like this, just a shame, we asked to pay for the first courses and he He simply kicked us out of the restaurant on the grounds that we Israelis were ruining his name

I ate the dish from 1st pic, chicken but with very smoked taste, i didn’t finish ... not my taste at all
